A great place for rock lovers

If you've never been to Wilson Lake, now is a great time to check it out, even if boating season is about over.

No crowds, no ticks, no skeeters.

These photos were taken last Labor Day weekend. I know, they are pretty old by now (hey, I've been busy), but just picture the lake without all of these boats on it.

On this day, I was hiking through the Rocktown Natural Area, 300 acres of trails, rolling prairie and weird rock formations, many of which can't bee seen from the lake.

On the other hand, a boat would be a good way to get to some of them, as hiking around some of the remote coves can be a very lengthy process.

If you want to read more about the area, check out this story I wrote for The Hutchinson News last month.
Happy trails!

Or do those creatures really live in KS?   » Reply to this comment... » See all 1 replie(s)   Posted by Brooke 10-20-2009 18:00, , Guest   Love Rock Town! Very beautiful. And loads of great rocks.
